Mallorca! I’ve been there several times and it will always be a place where I will return so gladly.
Though I’ve been more at the beach and not necessarily in marinas, I’m thinking about visiting Port Soller because it’s pretty close to the area where I usually go. Club Vela Andratx also seems extremely beautiful, just like the other ones actually. I can’t say one of them looks less attractive because they all are amazing in these pictures.
If I manage to return to Mallorca and visit Port Soller, I will tell you about my experience there. 🙂
Hi Ashley,
Yes, I agree with you, all these beautiful places make it very hard to choose. The best thing to do is to try them so we can see what suit us the best!
I would love to hear your feedback about your experiences using some of these marinas. This would be a sensational idea!
I wish you a superb journey in Mallorca and thank you for the comment!
Club De Mar and Port D’ Andratx definitely look more my cup of tea 🙂 I am visiting Mallorca later this month and cannot wait! It does have a bit of a ‘chavvy’ reputation but your post is great as you make a very valid point of it being something for everyone depending on where you go. How often do you go to Mallorca and which is your favourite if you had to pick? Thanks for the helpful post 🙂
Hi Holly
Oh…that’s wonderful, your impatience is totally understandable, Mallorca is absolutely beautiful!
If I would have to choose between all these places, I would have picked Club De Mar as they can welcome small and large boats and the amenities and services are fantastic!
Thank you for the comment and wish you a great day!
